Anatomically anchored template-based level set segmentation: application to quadriceps muscles in mr images from the osteoarthritis initiative.

In this paper, we present a semi-automated segmentation method for magnetic resonance images of the quadriceps muscles. Our method uses an anatomically anchored, template-based initialization of the level set-based segmentation approach. The method only requires the input of a single point from the...
